Just made a notion to rap my test loads that are in the reloading block with Saran rap it keeps the all together whenI transport them to the range
OP, good idea though ... And tiger, use the force ... of your fingers to tear through the plastic wrap at the range.
You really need to move up to commercial grade Costco plastic wrap. Nice to dispense, great ease to use cutter and sticks to plate, not your face - https://www.costco.com/kirkland-signature-stretch-tite-plastic-food-wrap,-12-in-x-3,000-ft.product.100300513.htmlI can't stand the stuff, I end up with it wrapped around my arms, my face and everything else, trying to use it. And let's not forget the cheezy cutter that's only half glued on the box.
My nephews ended up liking my various multi-tools I had over the years (Gerber, Leatherman, etc.) and wife kept stealing my S&W folder (She says it's hers now) that I finally bought some cheap Walmart folders on $1 clearance and no issues since. And of course, obligatory Harbor Freight disposable razor knife so invaluable around the bench ...Normal gentleman's wear includes a pen knife. Normal shooter wearing semi-dirty jeans and a old flannel or t-shirt is a pocket knife (Barlow or a Trapper) . Normal wear for an old mechanic is a folding razor knife and perhaps a Swiss Army Knife.

I wrap my car parts, especially those that are prone to rusting, after spraying with WD40/oil/CLP/grease with plastic wrap and they remain pristine year after year (Learned this from an old mechanic)
I am too. Technically I lied since I buy the cheapie ones from Dollar Tree and not authentic Ziploc brand...Oh did I mention that I was reallly cheap!
MTM boxes for all my ammo. Forget the Saran wrap, that's for the kitchen.
If there’s a prize for invention of the modern era it would go to ZIP lock bags especially quart size with the slide. A million uses and I even wash and reuse them.I am a cheapskate. I use and reuse quart sized Zip Loc freezer bags. I put the ammo in them with a label of what it is. Shoot the loads and drop the empties back in and bring home. Inspect brass and shake bag to remove dirt and such before returning it to the origional box I have in the reloading room. Oh did I mention that I was reallly cheap!
Why not just put them in a plastic cartridge box or a Zip-Loc bag?
